    Hey y'all, I've been using docker compose a lot in my local network, and managing setup between machines is a bit of a pain in the ass for me. I wanted an easy way to share complex configurations. At the moment most docker compose package management is done by adding a docker-compose.yml to your repo, adding a bunch of setup instructions, and hoping they are well followed. This didn't feel like a smart way to go about it to me. I wanted to create a way to create a complex package, say a series of related or linked services, and provide some meaningful way to have users install it. That's why…

    Waputer is an operating system that runs entirely in the browser. When you visit the website at https://waputer.app, a kernel written in JavaScript sets up a filesystem and launches a WebAssembly program, which in turn talks to the kernel to handle the display and input. A purely terminal-based version is at https://waputer.dev. My original intention was to create programs that run in the browser that have a lot more in common with the desktop. The traditional "hello world" program is not really suited for the web. Waputer changes that. The GitHub repo at…

    Hello there, I’m working on a desktop viewer application for WebAssembly modules for Windows, macOS, and Linux, and I’m looking to have some feedback from real-world use. The application is fairly small, requires no installation for now, and is limited to the minimum functionality, but I have more features in mind for the future. Testers would get a free license including future releases. If you’re interested, drop me a mail at [email protected] with the platform(s) you could test on. It would be helpful if you could tell me about in what capacity do you work with WebAssembly,…

    I started this in January and haven't written a line of the compiler myself. Coding agents write every line; I do design and taste. Wado is a Rust-flavored, GC'd language for WebAssembly Component Model. Try it in the browser, and ask me anything!

    Release 1.8.2 of wazero, the zero dependency WebAssembly runtime for Go, brings the amd64 compiler to 4 new OSes: NetBSD, DragonFly BSD, illumos and Solaris. The compiler also supports Linux, FreeBSD, macOS and Windows, on amd64 and arm64. This didn't require any changes to the compiler, just enabling it after setting up tests to validate that it already worked. Now the HN hook: noticeably absent is OpenBSD, which I failed to get working, even after taking W^X into account (we already had that for arm64 on macOS). If you wanna help, please drop us a note!

    Tl;Dr: mpm implements a solution to XKCD #1654 (Universal Install Script). Now you can do: $ mpm --xkcd install and let it figure out which package manager to use to install your package. The project is open-source: https://github.com/kdeldycke/meta-package-manager#readme This CLI has some other capabilities, like listing the duplicate packages on your system: $ mpm list --duplicates ╭────────────┬─────────┬───────────────────╮ │ Package ID │ Manager │ Installed version │ ├────────────┼─────────┼───────────────────┤ │ blah │ cargo │ 0.0.0 │ │ blah │ gem │ 0.0.2 │ │ blah │…

    Hello all, I've been working on research tools for Wasm for some time now, and just today we put up the pre-print for our newest paper "Flexible Non-intrusive Dynamic Instrumentation for WebAssembly" (https://arxiv.org/abs/2403.07973), which will appear in ASPLOS 2024. Two previous papers, one about Wizard's interpreter (https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3563311) and one about the JIT (https://arxiv.org/abs/2305.13241) have been discussed on HN before. This new paper explains what Wizard is really about: dynamic instrumentation of…
